Question

The equation y = 11x represents the liters of water a baseball team drinks each practice. This equation shows that after two practices, the team will have consumed 22 liters of water.
Determine the constant of proportionality.

11
22
0.18
5.5

Answer 1

The constant of proportionality is equal to 11.

Constant of Proportionality

The constant of proportionality is the ratio that relates two given values in what is known as a proportional relationship. Other names for the constant of proportionality include the constant ratio, constant rate, unit rate, constant of variation, or even the rate of change.

In this question, the constant of proportionality is that value that doesn't change or represents the number of players while x represented the number of games they played.

The constant of proportionality can be solved mathematically as

$y = 11x\\x = 2\\22 = 11(2)\\22 = 22$

The constant of proportionality is the value that makes y = 11x and it is 11.
